No detailed reason has been given, so we're left to speculate why Natalie Maines' L.A. date is still on but her first solo appearance in O.C. is off.

Regardless, Maines has canceled her Oct. 9 show at House of Blues Anaheim. Refunds are available at point of purchase. Credit card purchases are automatically being processed.

The only explanation is that there has been "a change of scheduling," which I suppose could have something to do with prep time needed for a series of Dixie Chicks appearances across Canada starting later this month.

Yet Maines' schedule still allows for a recently added gig at L.A.'s El Rey Theatre on Oct. 8, the night before what would have been her Downtown Disney gig. Those tickets, $38.50, are still available.

Maines isn't the only act scrubbing shows: Irish ensemble Clannad, featuring vocalist Moya Brennan. Nádúr, the group's first album in more than a dozen years, just dropped last week, but its performance at El Rey on Oct. 16 has been canceled anyway. Refunds also available at point of purchase.
